Michael Landy may transfer your submission into drawings for an exhibition in Toronto

Just recently, The Power Plant Contemporary Art Gallery announced an open call to collaborate with British artist Michael Landy in DEMONSTRATION, the artist’s fall 2017 project at The Power Plant, which will be a continually evolving exhibition built with participation of the public.

The British community has been invited to participate in the creation of this collaborative work of art, vocalizing the key issues of Canada’s current social and political landscape.

WHO CAN PARTICIPATE? If you have an opinion on anything that impacts Canada’s social or political landscape, or affects you on a personal level, this project is for you!

HOW DO I PARTICIPATE? Submit images, words, phrases or slogans that shed light on urgent issues affecting our contemporary reality. Landy will transform selected submissions into drawings that will be installed over the course of the exhibition. Submissions will be accepted throughout the duration of the show, however those received by September 10 will be considered for the unveiling of DEMONSTRATION at its public opening on September 28.

HOW DO I SUBMIT? Send images, words, text, slogans — anything that you see or come across throughout your day that makes you feel strongly enough to protest or support — to submissions AT thepowerplant DOT ORG or simply by posting on social media using #TPPDemonstration. All the details are here.

SPREAD THE WORD! Please do share this open call information with other Brits as well as with supporters, other groups or organizations, friends, fellow advocates and art-lovers or anyone else that may be interested. Your thoughts and opinions are important, and we need to hear them!
